5. Q’orianka Kilcher, “The New World” (2005)

Seven years after his big return to cinema, Malick tried to keep a stride of some sort going with the Pocahontas story in “The New World.” And in the pivotal role, Malick cast Q’orianka Kilcher, an unknown — aside from being singer/songwriter Jewel Kilcher’s cousin — and a happy surprise. In the extended cut of the film, much of the material, including the character, has some more room to breathe. So I consider that when sizing up Kilcher’s lived-in portrayal of a complex woman confronted with love, duty and ultimately, the real “new world” of the film’s title: civilization.

Have loved & later purchased both of TM films ive seen. Amazing use of narrative. Not at all pretentious. Just not short attention span theatre. He handles quite different subject matter with grace and imagination. Tolife is a beautiful film btw
